April 10, 2014 Quintana Bird Refuge, Freeport, TX

Today we spent the day with my cousin Diane and her husband Jim.  We went to the gulf coast at a little town called Quintana, where there is a bird refuge;  alas, we saw very few birds, probably because we were there at midday.  Then we walked out on a LONG jetty and enjoyed seeing other seabirds, including a squadron of pelicans in a bit of a feeding frenzy.  The two dolphins we saw might have helped with that....  The weather was perfect for our coastal adventure!
